Rookie starts Prediction

FarBeyondDriven · Post #1 » by **FarBeyondDriven** » Mon Oct 28, 2024 7:43 am

Wondering how many rookies will start at least one game. Last year I found 27 rookies that started at least a game. That seems higher than normal but I could be off. It's not always indicative of a class' strength as injuries and tanking teams can provide opportunities for spot starts especially in the 2nd half of seasons. But I'm curious how many rookies from the 2024 class do you see starting at least one game

2023

I'll say more than 2023

With Taylor Hendricks out for the season, Cody Williams is almost certain to get many starts this season.

up to 22. I figured we'd hit 25 and there's a good chance that happens

finally hit 25. Faster than I would have thought tbh. There's several guys I could see starting games in the 2nd half once it's clear who is tanking and after trades. Class is comparing favorably to 2023 (minus Wemby)

42 (unless I'm missing someone) rookies started at least a game. Not bad for the weakest draft class in history
